ABOUT

WANDERING THREADS is what I like to call an 'alternative fashion blog'.

I founded this site in March 2011 as a platform for expressing my love for traditionalculture, globally inspired styleand all things ethnic. Focusing in particular on the magnificent, handcrafted, artisanal products that continue to inspireand ignite the imaginations of artists and designers in contemporary culture.

Specifically centred around 'fashion' or, perhaps more appropriately 'style',WANDERING THREADS is a collection of findings from around the world, built upon, week by week, as I travel across far and distant lands and stumble across more wonders from the world wide web.

Encompassing everything from jewelleryandtextiles to traditional dress, costume, high fashion, home accessories and other such adornments, I hope that this site will both enlighten and excite its readers to dive deeper into the spectacle of diversity and ingenuity that can be found at every corner of the globe.
